Similar demonstrations are planned across the United States and in 161 other countries. Two days later, that show of unity will most likely give way to political discord. The United Nations is convening on Tuesday the largest gathering of world leaders ever devoted to...

Guardian: The consensus gap describes the yawning chasm between the expert consensus that humans are driving global warming (about 97% agreement) and the public perception of the expert agreement (which polling puts around 50% in the USA). Less than 10% of Americans realize the expert consensus is as high as 97% on this issue. Research has shown that when people are aware of the expert consensus, theyre more likely to accept the fact that humans are causing global warming, and also more likely to support...
